Diet or Timing...

[shannashimmers]

What is most important? I'am new here so havent read up to much yet. I want to sway for girl but not trying until first of year,how soon should I start diet? Also can you do it with pcos/ insulin resistance?

From what I have learned from this wonderful site is that Diet is more important...I conceived my DS2 with a 3 day cut off, so timing doesn't sway. Also, it's recommended to start diet 12 weeks before. There's a link in the TTC index for gals with pcos/insulin resistance. Good luck!!!

Diet.

Here is the guide to swaying with PCOS

the scientific case against timing is here http://genderdreaming.com/forum/gend...le-timing.html

Even though I have pcos I have regular periods and get pregnant easy. I have had 4 miscarriages and had to take baby aspirin, prednisone, heparin, folbic while pregnant with my son to get him here. I start taking a few of these before a pos pregnancy test, would the diet be ok to do while taking these. I figured it would be fine since the diet is stopped once pregnant. I would really love to have a daughter and this will be our last especially since I'am 35 and Dh is 41.

yes all those should be ok with the diet.

I would DEF recommend doing whatever you need to do for your health and to prevent losses before doing anything at all whatsoever to sway.

Is there any way for you to get Clomid?? It has helped some ladies with PCOS to get pregnant because it helps raise your progesterone after you ovulate (sometimes ladies with PCOS have lower than normal prog. after ovulation and this may contribute to losses.)

[shannashimmers]

Yeah I have taken clomid and injections. I got pregnant several times natural also and had losses on the medicated rounds and finally was successful with my son on a natural cycle. I did have to take all the above meds to stay pregnant and I did take progesterone from after Ovulation until well into my period I think I forgot to mention that. I'am really interested with the diet so I'am thinking about buying the meal plan.

Do you think if you follow the diet and don't do timing at all that it can increase odds of a girl, or you need to do both?

I don't believe in timing at ALL and yes, I believe if you do diet without timing, you will have a great sway.

I got 3 of my 4 boys from BD before O (and the 4th one mayhave been, he was a sneak attack, then got my girl from one BD at positive OPK (shettles boy timing)

I always appreciate people buying the sway plans and diet plans because it allows me to do this as a job instead of having to go to work! thanks for considering it.

Are you on metformin? My endocrinologist says it helps prevent m/c. (I also have pcos).

[atomic sagebrush]

metformin also a good pink sway tactic if you need it.
